First time EVER posting in a forum!
This is my first time planting brussel sprouts. I live in west Virginia in zone 6. About 6 weeks ago I planted brussel sprout seeds in a container indoors. They germinated, formed first leaves, and then became leggy. I changed container location and adjusted watering but nothing changed, no growth, no new leaves, no death! I decided 3 days ago to place the container outside but now my plants have turned purple (stems and leaves) still only have first leaves no true leaves. Any clue whats going on, or what i have done wrong? I figure my soil my be deficient in something they are needing, I'd love to plant them in the ground but without true leaves is this even an option? Current weather has been up and down 40-60 degree nights and 70-90 degree days. Thanks for any input!
